Re: Bye Week Preview - Who Stays and Who Goes?

I've seen more than enough of Eberflus and Getsy to think that they should both go. Fields is down there, too--I don't think he's going to round into a starting-quality QB--but I still think that we should keep him around. And draft a QB. So, I want to preface this by saying that I'm not trying to ...

Re: Way too early 2024 mock draft

I don't think Jayden Daniels should make it out of the first round. To be fair, his build is a rather slight and, for a guy who runs as recklessly as he does, that's an durability concern. Physically Daniels is built like Desmond Ridder or Jared Goff coming out of college's, though he's a much more...

Re: Does Terrell Smith impace JJ staying?

The ideal play would seem to be Johnson on an appropriately rich long-term contract that lets us move him after two years. If everything clicks, we'll have some very nice options with Gordon coming due for a new contract. Smith is a keeper, but along with Stevenson that's a terrific CB rotation. No ...

I think you've got it backward.

Have you ever seen an offense that looked more like it was called by a DC?

Problem is, it'll take at least two teams to fall in love with Williams since no one will believe that we're seriously deciding whether to keep Fields or to ditch him. Two teams or a Lynch-on-Pace snow job by Poles.

I just started watching Alt…I really like what I see. Question is, do we need him? Probably not, since it's difficult to imagine Braxton Jones sliding inside. Tackle depth is always great, but our bigger problems are on the inside (well, center and the Nate Davis-sized question mark at RG). That an...

Re: Update: Bears and Sweat reach extension agreement

Anyway, it's all academic: Iowa and Northwestern are in the process of ending football as we know it.

Record-low 29.5 over/under, and with half a minute left they haven't gotten half that many points between them.
